Thanks Daniel!

Sorry for being a N00B.

I guess my main question was where can I find a page that describes
how I get the minimal amount of source that I need to compile, and get
started testing, fixing bugs, etc? I ran across the CVS tree of
eclipse, and that seems huge! Do I need to download and compile
everything, even though I'm just looking into the JDT UI stuff? Is it
a project that I can check out, open in my own eclipse, and compile
via eclipse?

Also, do I need an account for extssh, or do I start with anonymous
access? I'll continue to read through the dev pages, but if there is a
FAQ or Getting Started Guide that I'm missing, then please do point me
to it.

Thanks a lot!

Ron
